Longer working lives are forecasted as proposals are in place to raise the retirement age in a bid to tackle the problem of a rapidly aging population Photo: Le Toan This September, Vu Quang Tho, head of the Institute for Workers and Trade Unions under the Vietnam General Confederation of Labour, will officially retire. The 60-year-old has devoted decades of his life to studying labour policies.

Under our survey, many said they want to see their working time lengthen,” Tho told VIR. “It will also help Vietnam respond to the aging of … [Read more...] about Retirement age set to be increased
